sehr zentral gelegen

Die Fenster waren im Dez. undicht und das führte zu Zugluft und Kälte in der Nacht. Am nächsten Tag bekamen wir einen Heizlüfter. Besser als nichts. Die Reparatur konnte am Wochenende nicht durchgeführt werden

Un hostel en el centro

Si pasas 2 o 3 días está muy bien, porque la ubicación está muy bien. Pero para más días puede que no sea el alojamiento más cómodo.

Un bon hôtel pour les globe-trotters

Un hôtel à réserver aux voyageurs en solo plutôt qu'aux familles. La salle de bain n'est pas du tout adaptée aux familles avec jeunes enfants : douche collée à la paroi, en hauteur et impossible à régler ni en direction, ni en température, ni en pression. Le petit-déjeuner était bon et très copieux. Le personnel est serviable et disponible.

It's a cheap option considering its location within Dublin, but it was not comfortable at all.

Awful hostel

Room was not very clean. Bathroom smelled of mildew. Poor matching of people in room as I was the only female with 3 other males in a mixed dorm. One guy was up all night having sex in the bed across from me which kept me up all night. Seeing as this was my first hostel stay ever, I didn't know the rules. Otherwise I would have reported it. Loud location.

Un petit placard en guise de chambre, l'ascenseur qui ne fonctionne pas, on entend tout ce qui se passe dans les couloirs et tout est payant y compris la consigne à bagage, alors qu'on a déjà payé trop cher pour une si petite chambre.

It's a hostel not a hotel.

A twin room is actually a 2 bunkbed dorm without the other 2 people

auberge à deux pas du centre historique

Une personne à l'accueil 24/24, une chambre plutôt confortable, les douces sont légèrement petite mais propre. Quant au petit déjeuner celui - ci s'arrête au minimum (si vous voulez un complément, il faut l'acheter au bar balista de l'auberge). A choisir pour la localisation en priorité!

Zentral aber völlig runtergekommen

Das Haus hat eine Toplage da es sehr zentral liegt.wir hatten ein privat Zimmer für zwei Personen mit Dusche. Die Dusche ist extrem klein und auch die übrigen Sanitären Anlagen sind in die Jahre gekommen und stimmlich und manchmal auch nicht wirklich schön anzusehen. Da die Zimmer wände extrem dünn sind bekommt man auch alles mit was im Nachbarzimmer so vor sich geht, wir hatten das Glück ein Pärchen neben uns zu haben das alle höhen und Tiefen ihre Beziehung durchgemacht hatten bis morgens um fünf. Ohne Gehörsschutz geht es in diesem Hostel wirklich nicht. Das Personal ist ganz nett die haben uns auch nachts geholfen dass endlich Ruhe in unser Nachbarzimmer kam . Die Gemeinschaftsküche ist in einem katastrophalen Zustand ich würde meinen das sind alles Möbel vom Sperrmüll und wir wollten dort wirklich nichts kochen. Wir haben in diesem Hostel vier Nächte verbracht also ich würde dort nicht mehr schlafen wollen .Wir haben auf unserer Reise durch Irland viele andere Hostels kennen gelernt und die waren alle wirklich sehr gut, doch das hier ist leider nicht zu empfehlen.

3 yön vierailu. Viereisten huoneiden äänet(toisinsanoen melu) kantautui huoneeseemme. Lisäksi huone oli suomalaiseen makuun aika likainen. Henkilökunta ystävällistä ja auttavaista. Sijainti hyvä, sillä kaikki nähtävyydet ja pelipaikat kävelymatkan päässä. Suosittelen erityisesti reppureissaajille.

Great location, but not great beds.

The location was great, but the free breakfast was really minimal, the whole place didn't smell very good, and our single beds didn't have small sheets, they had big sheets that were folded over so you couldn't really tuck them in well, but instead it's like sleeping in a taco. Therefore, when you sleep, nothing stays in place. I thought it wasn't worth what we paid for.

It doesn't take too long to walk to the Temple bar

Shower and bathroom in the four person room I stayed in was tiny and not great. Couldn't really have a descent shower. As for the room, it all depends on who you've got in there at the time. I was lucky. But two of them snored and the room occasionally stank from rucksacks and shoes that definately needed some airing. The morning breakfast was a bit manic, not enough spaces for all but still good food and options to buy better food and drinks. The staff were very helpful
